C16 At the Engagement Party

"Yes, we will not let you down!"

Hao Zhongtian made a gesture, and then they left. Tomorrow's dinner, and it would be even grander, was enough to keep them busy for a while.

"Hey! I thought it was something big. It's a piece of cake for us to handle such a small matter. It's been a long time since Young Master Hao handed in a mission to us."

Feng complained that he hadn't received a mission for a long time. This kind of thing was indeed very boring for him.

"Since Young Master Hao has already instructed us, we must not disappoint him."

Then he replied. Since it was a small matter, he had to do it well.

Quantum seller.

It was the largest place in the whole of Toad State, and the four bodyguards had insisted that the space be cleared for the evening's feast. It was indeed large, and the lights along the way were magnificent, and you could see the sky above you, which was made of glass.

The hall was filled with drinks and fruits. Large bundles of balloons were tied to the roof, and the colored lights were also beautifully arranged.

The ready-made drinks were poured into glasses, the glasses were arranged in a lovely three-dimensional heart, the sky was full of beautiful fireworks, the floor was covered with red carpets, and the stage was beautifully set.

This was much better than the wedding of Xi Wanyi and Shui Yunqing in Hao Zhongtian's dream, but this was not the wedding scene.

Many people came, probably invited by Xi Qingyang. She wanted to show off how happy she was with Hao Zhongtian, but she didn't know that Hao Zhongtian didn't like her at all. On the contrary, he hated Xi Qingyang to the core.

They were all girls of about the same age, and Xi Qingyang did not invite any of her elders. After all, this kind of occasion was not suitable for them.

"There are so many people here. It's a big scene. Wanyi, your sister really knows how to climb. She knew that you had a relationship with Hao Zhongtian, but now she's asking you to come. Her plan is really deep."

Xi Qingyang suddenly called today to say that she and Hao Zhongtian were getting engaged. She asked her to come, hoping that she would bless them. If she didn't come, it would be disrespecting her.

"Since they are getting engaged and Qingyang wants me to bless her, I can't refuse her, can I?"

This time, Xi Wanyi was wearing a black lace evening dress and two-centimeter heels. Since they were both engaged, it wouldn't be too awkward to meet again.

Moreover, he was afraid that Hao Zhongtian wouldn't even remember him.

"Hey! Let's go. They're engaged..."

To be honest, Yang Xiaoqing had never believed that Hao Zhongtian would like Xi Qingyang. In fact, she had already guessed it in her heart, but Xi Wanyi did not allow her to say it. Furthermore, she even had the intention to kill Hao Zhongtian.

Everyone at the dinner was gorgeously dressed. Xi Wanyi did not like this kind of heavily made-up occasion, but today it was Xi Qingyang who asked her to go.

When they arrived, there were already a lot of people standing in the middle of the hall. The banquet had not started yet, so they were not too late.

"Hello, everyone. I'm very glad that you're all here to attend my dinner party tonight. It's nothing more than a celebration of my return to the G Group."

Hao Zhongtian appeared, standing in the middle of the hall. Xi Qingyang held his arm and snuggled up to him like a kitten.

"This is my girlfriend, Xi Qingyang!"

Hao Zhongtian held Xi Qingyang's hand tightly in his own. To be exact, Xi Qingyang refused to let go, so Hao Zhongtian naturally felt embarrassed to shake it off in front of so many people.

Xi Qingyang's face was smiling like a flower, and my mouth was about to split open, but Hao Zhongtian's heart was filled with disdain. He was afraid of dirtying his hands for a minute.

"Isn't it supposed to be a betrothal? Why is it only a declaration of their relationship? What the hell is this, a show of affection?"

Yang Xiaoqing blabbered on and on, but Xi Qingyang only sneered. She knew that Xi Qingyang loved to show off, so she specially called her today to ask her to go.

As the banquet began, the rest of the guests twisted their graceful figures on the stage. All of them were dressed scantily, probably all of them loved to be invited by Xi Qingyang.

Xi Wanyi and Yang Xiaoqing were in no mood to dance, so the two of them sat on the sofa and ordered two bottles of cocktails.

The two of them felt conspicuous and out of place. After all, they had come here to eat at such a ball.

Just like that, they stayed up for a few hours. Xi Qingyang and Hao Zhongtian danced in the center of the ballroom. Hao Zhongtian put his hand on Xi Qingyang's waist, and Xi Qingyang put her arm around her shoulder. Everyone said that they were a good match, but only Yang Xiaoqing scoffed at them and mocked them.

"Oh, the children they give birth to together are evil!"

But what Xi Wanyi didn't know was that the man in the center of the ballroom had been staring at her the whole time. She just drank one glass after another with her head down.

"Did they leave?"

Xi Wanyi did not raise her head. She did not want to look up because she did not want to see them.

"I am the main character. Of course I have to leave last!"

After another half an hour, the banquet was about to end.

"Guys, let's end today's dinner here. I like your blessings today. It will make my relationship with Qing Yang more stable. I hope I can hold my son's hand and have a white head with him!"

There was a thunderous applause in the hall. Yang Xiaoqing cursed and cursed, but Xi Wanyi took Hao Zhongtian's words to heart very seriously.

"Kiss, kiss! Kiss... kiss!"

Suddenly, someone in the hall shouted for them to kiss, and Xi Qingyang laughed even more happily. She looked at Hao Zhongtian lovingly and closed her eyes.

Hao Zhongtian also looked at everyone with a smile on his face. Then, he pursed his lips and pressed his sexy thin lips against hers.

"They..."

Xi Wanyi's eyes widened. So it turned out that they really loved each other.

Yang Xiaoqing saw that Xi Wanyi's expression was not right, so she pulled her away.

"So, he forgot about me."

It was already very late, but Xi Wanyi was still unable to fall asleep. Her thoughts were still on Guan Zhongtian, thinking about the party yesterday, and the news she had heard! Was he really the one who killed Shui Yunqing?

"Well, that's hard to say. He's the ruthless, tyrannical, and black-bellied number one person in the G Group. There's nothing he can't do!"

She thought to herself, 'Hao Zhongtian killed Shui Yunqing so cruelly. Could it be that he doesn't care about old friendships at all? After all, they know each other.'

"That's right, and his four bodyguards. They should be even crueler. Hao Zhongtian must have sent them to kill Shui Yunqing."

The night was already very late, and it was strangely quiet, but Xi Wanyi's thoughts were in a mess. She now felt that Hao Zhongtian was a very calculative person, but why didn't she see it at first?

"The human heart is hard to read, after all, who knows what kind of person it is? You can't tell a person from their appearance, they have such a complicated heart..."

She didn't like Shui Yunqing. They were just friends, and it also had to do with Hao Zhongtian's smile and Yang Xiaoqing. She liked Shui Yunqing.

So she couldn't just ignore this matter, but how could she do anything to Hao Zhongtian?

"Am I going to be as heartless as him?"

Xi Wanyi was at a loss. Since she had already agreed to take revenge on Hao Zhongtian with Yang Xiaoqing, wouldn't she be as cold and heartless as him?

"But if he could do this to Yunqing, why can't I? I'm not ruthless, nor am I heartless. I'm just giving everything back to her like this."

Xi Wanyi didn't know if she was lying to herself, but she could only comfort herself in this way. She had to convince herself that her heart was soft because Hao Zhongtian was unforgivable.

She didn't sleep all night, and she struggled with herself. It was as if she couldn't let go of Hao Zhongtian, but how could she like someone who didn't care about killing people? He wasn't worth caring about because he couldn't be forgiven.

Little by little she drifted off to sleep, and tonight she heard the nightingales singing and saw the bright, flawless moon, but she did not sleep well.

In her dream, she seemed to dream of Hao Yunhao. They were holding a grand wedding. Many people came, even her father. But everyone's faces were dark. Why didn't they laugh? They didn't look happy. It was just her and Hao Zhongtian who were foolishly smiling at everyone.

Were they unhappy? Were they unhappy that she and Hao Zhongtian were getting married? At the wedding, she didn't receive a single blessing.

Her father walked over and scolded her. Then, he poured a bottle of red wine on her white wedding dress, but it turned bright red. Wasn't it just a glass of red wine? The wedding dress... Why did it become like this?

Xi Wanyi woke up from her dream at 7: 30 in the morning. Her forehead was covered in sweat. Could it be... What could have happened?

She thought about how it was possible. Wasn't this dream just a preview of how impossible it was for her and Hao Zhongtian to be together? They wouldn't be blessed, and of course, there would be no end to it.

She tidied up the messy bedroom, then dressed up. She put on some light makeup and went out. Yang Xiaoqing was waiting for her.

Xi Wanyi wore two-centimeter heels and carried a bucket bag on her shoulder. No matter how plainly she dressed, she still looked natural and unrestrained. She was still as charming as the first time Hao Zhongtian saw her.

"Hey, Xiao Qing, I'll wait for you at the coffee shop. Come over now!"

Yang Xiaoqing had also just woken up. After washing and dressing up, she casually put on a pair of small shoes, then carried the same water bag as Xi Wanyi and went out.

She stopped a taxi and told the driver to go to the Yass Cafe on the north road. Five minutes later, she arrived, but Xi Wanyi was still not there.

"Waiter, two cups of cappuccino!"

She sat by the window and waited for Xi Wanyi. Shouldn't she have arrived before her?

"Hey, she can't be walking slowly, right? Then I'll wait for her."

She slowly drank the cappuccino in her hand. She deliberately drank very slowly, afraid that Xi Wanyi would laugh at her again when she came.

"I thought she was going to buy me coffee. It's a good thing I remembered to take the money, or I'd be embarrassed to death."

Yang Xiaoqing waited for an hour and slowly drank up both cups of coffee, but Xi Wanyi still hadn't arrived. She didn't even answer her phone.

"Where did this guy die? He wouldn't have stood me up, right? But why didn't he pick up the phone? Didn't she just call me and say she was on her way? What's going on?"
